Brought in to advise the Due Diligence Team assessing the SkyNet Worldwide Express business in London, I provided a swift and comprehensive analysis around the key issues to allow my client, Skynet South Africa (Pty) Ltd to make an informed investment decision and create the best value from the transaction. I understood the strategic aims of the transaction and the critical success factors for my client. My objective was to identify the scope of the overall project and key areas of risk to focus on. Whilst I undertake due diligence projects on a standalone basis, I am often involved in the wider aspects of the transaction and am often too retained to provide continued support and advice.
